Suppliers & Production
Where do the Piranhas come from? We take great care when selecting our partners. Foresight is intrinsic to us. That’s why sustainability is deeply rooted in the way we do business. We have deliberately chosen to only use a few suppliers and producers with a focus on Switzerland – and if this is not possible – as close as possible from Europe. Our partners must guarantee control and ensure that they work in a manner that feels right for us. We want to build strong, long-term partnerships, and we have worked with most of them for many years. This enables us to ensure that our producers are working according to our requirements in terms of sustainability and human rights. That we can handle challenges together and that there is a common desire to change things for the better.
Caring, Reuse & Recycle
Nobody can do everything, but everybody can do something!
